> I'M CHRIS MATTHEWS AND
YOU'RE WATCHING
HARDBALL CANADA,
ON MSNBC CANADA.
AS WE EXPAND INTO THE
CANADIAN MARKET WE BEGIN
THIS WEEK DISCUSSING ALL
THINGS CANADIAN AND GET
TO THE BOTTOM OF
WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT.
FRANKLY LIKE MOST PEOPLE,
I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CANADA
EXCEPT ONE TIME I SAW THE
LEAFS PLAY THE FLYERS,
AND THEY'RE A BIG FAN OF BACON,
BUT AT THE SAME TIME
I DON'T THINK THE CANADIAN
NEWS PERSONALITIES ON
TELEVISION ARE VERY GOOD.
THEY'RE A LITTLE BIT TO
PASSIVE AND QUIET. SO WE'RE
GOING TO TURN TO OUR
PANEL OF EXPERTS WHO CAN
HELP US ENLIGHTEN ON WHAT THE
CANADIAN THING IS ALL ABOUT.
FIRST UP ANN COULTER.
ANN COULTER, YOUR A
NOTORIOUS BIGOT BUT SOME REASON
YOU ARE ALWAYS WELCOME
ON TELEVISION.
WHAT ARE YOUR
THOUGHTS ON CANADA?

> WELL IT SEEMS LIKE THERE'S
GAY STUFF BUT THERE IS
ALSO A LOT OF MUSIC UP IN
CANADA. ANN COULTER WHERE
DO YOU CUT DOWN ON ARCADE FIRE?
I WISH THEY HAD GONE BACK
TO THE ARCADE, AND MADE
SURE THERE WAS NO SURVIVORS.

> I'M NOT SURE I AGREE,
BUT I THINK IT'S A GOOD POINT.
WE'RE JOIN NOW BY ACTRESS
KATHLEEN TURNER. KATHLEEN
TURNER, I DIDN'T KNOW
YOU WERE CANADIAN.

> I'M WILLIAM SHATNER.
I AM CANADIAN.

> YOU KNOW, A
TREMENDOUS ACTRESS KATHLEEN
TURNER. I THINK, ESPECIALLY
IN HER PRIME SHE WAS
BEAUTIFUL, AND SHE WAS
FANTASTIC IN BODY HEAT
DON'T YOU AGREE TEGAN SARA?

> ARE YOU ASKING US THAT
JUST BECAUSE WE ARE LESBIANS?

> TELL ME SOMETHING BILL,
$500 DOLLAR FLIGHT FROM LOGAN
TO LAX. IS THAT THE BEST
YOU GUYS CAN DO AT PRICELINE?

> I DON'T PERSONALLY SET
THE PRICES AT PRICELINE.

> WELL MAYBE YOU COULD
CALL AND GET SCOTTY ON THAT THEN.

> SCOTTY IS A FICTIONAL
CHARACTER, AND HE'S DEAD.

> OK, SO YOU DODGED THE
QUESTION ON THAT ONE. TALK TO
SCOTTY. OUR NEXT GUEST
JOINING US TODAY. YOU HAVE
TO BE UNDER A ROCK NOT
TO KNOW WHO THIS GUY IS.
HE'S A DISGRACED FORMER
PRESIDENT OF TORONTO ROB FORD.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.

> (sings)
well, I
was standing next
to a mountain
chop it down with
the edge of my hand
(pretends he's playing a guitar)

> THAT MADE NO SENSE,
BUT IT WAS LOUD. NICE TO SEE
A CANADIAN WHO KNOWS
HOW TO BE ON TELEVISION.
(continues to pretend he's playing a guitar)

> ROB FORD, REALLY GETTING
DOWN TO THE ISSUES, TEGAN
SARA YOU'RE ATTRACTED TO WOMAN,
DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH MANITOBA?

> UH, THIS SHOULDN'T BE A SHOW.

> FINAL THOUGHTS FROM
ANN COULTER. WHAT DO YOU THINK
ABOUT CANADA?

> I THINK THAT DEGRASSI IS
RUINING OUR YOUTH, AND I THINK
THAT TIM HORTONS
TASTE LIKE PIG SHIT.

> A TRUE STATESMAN.
AS THE GREAT TIP O'NEILL ONCE SAID,
WE'RE OUT OF TIME.
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK MY
GUESTS ANN COULTER, ROB FORD,
KATHLEEN TURNER, AND OF
COURSE ROCKY AND BULLWINKLE.
JOIN US NEXT WEEK WHERE
OUR GUESTS ARE PAT BUCHANAN,
AND THE GUEST (inaudible)
YOU'RE WATCHING HARDBALL CANADA
ON MSNBC CANADA.
